“We are not even through the first week of the new year and if one more person utters the words, New Year, New Me, I am going to lose my shit. It isn’t that I don’t appreciate anyone making the effort, it’s just that sooner or later we all are compelled, nudged, and bitch slapped, into making some sort of change, either because we have reached a turning point, we have a health crisis, or we just plain feel it with every fiber of our being that it needs to be so.”
